Hands down, you’ve won” You might have seen that quote from the video we posted on Instagram because, of course, we had to shout that sweetness from the rooftops. What we didn’t post was probably the most fun of all - I gave my husband a large etched metal plaque that’s hanging in our kitchen. Well, people kept trying to figure out what it was and where it was from - their guesses were mind-blowing and hilarious! Only three people got it, right, would you believe? So I’m wondering if YOU know what it is? Here is the plaque. Let me know if you know what it is or post in the comments below. First one to post a comment with the right answer gets bragging rights forever! And probably also ages themselves… Anyway, that comment on lighting made me think that I REALLY should do a blog post on lighting for you: the different types, how to layer it, and why it makes such a difference to your overall mood and design. So that’s what you get this month. Check it out here. Where was I? Right - all the fun. I knew the Modern Home Tour would be ‘good for business’, and an honor, but y’all, I didn’t expect it to be so much fun! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1739492096487-K0EYG5YQJRCIHKZ8OCIF/IMG_8767.jpg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - IMG_8767.jpg (Copy) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745363909605-BJ30UHJ13ICTPLDL5V54/And+done+copy.jpeg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - And done copy.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745418237940-6DQKL5F9M4L3QD14W3J0/IMG_7769.jpg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - IMG_7769.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745418358507-XDD45VGEYEK8M4OPO5NU/Tash+pointing+at+Living+Room+Flower+Light.jpeg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - Tash pointing at Living Room Flower Light.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745265336300-RTN479SBV82QNA9CJ2GY/IMG_2143.jpeg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - IMG_2143.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745361048017-7D1M7XSS4DN2NCY4GUIU/IMG_7765.jpg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - IMG_7765.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745361049151-AX5IU5DECS1F3TEEC4FF/IMG_7766.jpg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - IMG_7766.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745361040828-99IP20SKZ3SMORL1366S/IMG_214-43.jpeg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - IMG_214-43.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745361054484-HRJ0F9XEFNM3F4Y8I2ZM/IMG_7767.jpg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - IMG_7767.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745361057353-T6TQXJRNV7EO2ANTTL2M/IMG_7768.jpg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - IMG_7768.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745361066522-9D8ATGABHXX4RAGWTUOS/IMG_7784.jpg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - IMG_7784.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745361069498-IIR6JVYPRV5FVC0ZJHG8/IMG_7801.jpg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - IMG_7801.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745361073562-509NJAAIEMX5YE4N7WYP/IMG_7808+copy.jpg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - IMG_7808 copy.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745361076409-6V84ASEO5HPIWBSOA178/IMG_780910.jpg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - IMG_780910.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745365370058-765SPG8CQRDXDLDWTAVG/IMG_0165.JPG Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - IMG_0165.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745421164099-YZJARM56RK17RWP7N67G/8+Primary+Bath.jpeg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - 8 Primary Bath.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/4e2e00f4-e5af-4c1b-b481-d894fb00e620/IMG_2184+edited.jpg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745418037458-MBGSIW8J6P4B0ZE0XTJ6/IMG_2156.jpeg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - IMG_2156.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745418122448-GF976OHO61XQQ2YK2A7Z/IMG_1406.jpeg Blog - The GREATEST SHOW HOUSE ON EARTH? - IMG_1406.jpeg https://www.taashki.com/blog/lightupyourlife monthly 0.5 2025-04-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/68b0a8b9-12a9-4561-a54f-ed1e059fc80a/Diff+Light+Sources.jpeg Blog - LIGHT UP YOUR LIFE… - Different Light Sources Chandeliers, Pendants, Sconces, Lamps, Floor Lamps, oh my! I promised not to bore you to death. But as you can see, we layered sconces (next to the art), table lamps and a chandelier in this room. It also has recessed LED lights. Rather than thinking lighting is purely for seeing things, I want you to think of lighting as different parts of an outfit. The various types of lighting at different heights serve a purpose (task, ambiance and accent). Do you need ALL of this in one room? No. But the different fixtures lend mood, dimension and character to the room that a single light cannot. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/4bedeccb-e0e8-4a3c-ab55-e894bc6f7473/Bedside+Switches.jpeg Blog - LIGHT UP YOUR LIFE… - Think It Through I’ve noticed that when beauty prevails, function goes out the door. And with good interior design, you’ve got to have both - otherwise it just doesn’t work in real life! We’re not designing for a magazine, after all. We want to live in our homes and love them, no? So when you’re putting in new fixtures, really REALLY think through things like: The location of the fixture, How high you want to mount it, Where you want the switch to be located, Whether you want a dimmer on the switch, And in cases like these - where there are sconces on two sides of the reading nook (or a bed, for example) - would you like each fixture to operate independently of each other? Or do they both work with the same switch? You may feel like now I’m getting into the weeds, and to some extent, I am. But this is where people trip up and regret decisions. And these are costly mistakes to fix after the fact. Having done lighting plans for countless new construction homes, I can tell you that placement of light switches really affects your quality of life once you move in! So pay attention while you can! My suggestion? If you are putting in sconces for a reading nook, you don’t need the fixtures to turn on independently, but it is nice when they do. Especially if the reading nook is long. However, for bedside pendants, it is important to be able to control the bedside pendants separately from the bedside and from the entrance to the room. That way, if a partner is reading in bed, they can easily turn just their light on without disturbing the other partner. For other height and placement rules, maybe I should write you a Design Rules Guide. Would you be interested? Let me know in the comments below. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/5e792f20-3c34-4ce4-bad2-2aca0cc1678e/Bulb+Color+%26+Location+copy.jpg Blog - LIGHT UP YOUR LIFE… - Bulb Type To make it even more confusing for you, sweet homeowner, there are a thousand different bulb types! Yup - globe, Edison, candleabra, etc. And then there are fun sizes to consider - E12, E26, B10, etc. And if that were not enough, you have to decide between incandescent, halogen and LED! Here’s my rule of thumb: If you can, go with LED. It will last you MUCH longer. Less light bulb changes and decisions for you. And you’re doing your bit to save the environment. Yay! Try and keep it as simple as possible for yourself by getting a fixture with common bulb base types: E26 and E12 are probably the most common and the ones I would try and stick with. This is not always possible, but try. If your light fixture doesn’t show the bulb (like in this picture), don’t worry about bulb shape. If it does (like the picture above), then choose your bulb shape wisely and use your fixture for clues. If your fixture has long features, go with a tubular-shape/candleabra bulb. If it is rounder, perhaps a globe bulb would look better? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/ffbf640f-3657-4509-9d90-7cd3f6a5c647/Mixed+Metals+copy.jpg Blog - LIGHT UP YOUR LIFE… - Mix It Up Mix it all up: silhouettes, metals, sizes. Our eye catches things that are not the same and stops there, curious. That’s how interior designers control where your eyes go - by drawing attention to something. Here, the modern sconce references the gold and black of both the stair railing and the pattern on the wall, but instead of curves and an ornate feel, it brings simplicity and a modern look. The mixed metals allow us to use both metals throughout the space, keeping the design lighter than a Spanish-style home would typically allow. Many think that the style of their home dictates the type of fixture they have to buy. Especially those with Spanish-style homes, who buy these awful old, heavy fixtures that they tell me they hate but which ‘fit’ the house. I reject that idea completely. I refuse to let any client of mine live in a house with things they hate. If you don’t love it, why would you spend money on it? Makes no sense to me. Yes, it should work with the overall aesthetic we’re going for, but don’t trap yourself into thinking that only one thing works. There are always options. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/05a7888d-f85e-4776-8152-98c0b033c3df/1823+Arlington-69+copy.jpg Blog - LIGHT UP YOUR LIFE… - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/4fbdeae1-7877-4a38-a723-e8ac8bfc8875/Unique+Arrangements.jpg Blog - LIGHT UP YOUR LIFE… - Unique Arrangements Sometimes your light fixture dictates how many and how you hang them. But don’t think that you’re limited to just one fixture in a space. If you have a large room and/or an airy fixture like this baby over here, then play around with different arrangements. The spider-like design on these pendants lent them a lighter quality, and then the black ceilings further made them almost disappear. So we played with the arrangement and finally decided on a staggered pattern, using a medium and a large size, overlapping each other. They are mounted higher than the TV, so as not to block the line of sight. But the linearity of the pendants really jump off the wood accent wall behind the TV as well, pulling the room together beautifully, and making a quiet statement and bringing a refined, modern drama. Typically with pendants, using three in a staggered fashion at different heights and sizes works well. But I’ve seen five work beautifully when hung over a dining table. I have SO many examples I could show you - but then we’d be here forever! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/9ae2b9c6-adfc-4b15-bd1e-c784c646e9a9/recessed+leds.jpg Blog - LIGHT UP YOUR LIFE… - Recessed Lighting Okay, let me start by saying that I absolutely hate recessed lighting. But even I’ll admit that it has its place. Recessed lighting is great task lighting for areas that need to be bright while you’re working - your Kitchen, Laundry Room, Study, etc. And fabulous for wherever your kids do their homework. They’re also less expensive than decorative fixtures, so they’re good to have in utility areas, such as Storage Rooms, Secondary Closets, your Garage. But if you ever turn recessed lights on in a Living Room in place of a chandelier, then my darling, we are going to have words! They have no place in a room where you’re going to relax, in my opinion. They’re too harsh and utilitarian. And yes, you can get them in a more relaxed 2700K, but they still feel wrong, somehow. When laying out a lighting plan for a new build home, or renovating, try and place your recessed lighting in straight lines and, as much as possible, in a grid pattern - like we did in this Kitchen renovation. That way, you’ll have good light coverage in the whole room. Builders and architects tend to go overboard nowadays, but the general rule is to place lights every 4-6 feet. I like to go 6 feet, but you may feel like you need less. This Kitchen has recessed LED lights, FYI. If you need help with a full lighting and electrical plan for a new construction home, or a renovation, get in touch with us. We geek out on this stuff that drives you a bit mad. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/00034054-763f-45d0-ad74-644f942a9129/Unique.jpeg Blog - LIGHT UP YOUR LIFE… - Scour the Earth You knew this was coming, didn’t you? Don’t just go to your nearest big box store and buy all your light fixtures. This is jewelry! Really fall in love with the pieces you’re buying. Search high and low. Find unique pieces that speak to your soul. Antiques or vintage finds that tell a story. This piece is over 100 years old and is over 6’ tall. It came from St Anne’s Church in Houston and was installed in the house by the socialite who built the house in 1998. It still hangs proudly in the 32’ foyer from a 15’ long iron chain. Tell me - would you rather hear about this piece or about a chandelier from Pottery Barn that anyone could buy in a heartbeat? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/ce44648d-8f3b-4ba8-8afe-9d57200f634a/Dimmers.jpeg Blog - LIGHT UP YOUR LIFE… - Turn the Lights Down Low Mood. That’s everything with lighting. The way it looks creates the mood, but the way it feels is just as important. There’s no point putting in a fabulous fixture or the perfect bulbs if you can’t control how bright it is. So dimmers are not a ‘nice-to-have’ in my book, they’re a ‘must-have’. If they’re too rich for your blood, actually ask your electrician what it costs to put one in and you might be surprised - it’s actually not that expensive. And the effect will blow you away. If you cannot or don’t want to put a dimmer in every room, then at least get them in your Living Room, Dining Room and Primary Bedroom. I have them all over the house, but I particularly cannot live without the ones in our Primary Bathroom - they are great for both adjusting my eyes when I wake up at 5am and for a relaxing bath in the evenings. And the one in our Primary Closet is fabulous too. My girls love their dimmers - they have them in their rooms, bathrooms and closets as well. I always recommend dimmers in every room to my clients and those who take me up on it (most of them) never look back. This is really the point at which we should talk about Smart Lighting, but that’s a whole other post and while I could wax lyrical for another hour, I’m sure you’re tired of reading for now. So I’ll come back with another one on that. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/b4564d42-98e1-48c4-a823-0848eddcd31f/Change+the+Color+copy.jpg Blog - LIGHT UP YOUR LIFE… - Change the Game And sometimes the best option is to keep what you have and modify it. Maybe what you have is an heirloom. Maybe you’ve had it since the first house you ever bought and it has sentimental value. Or maybe, like this one, you love it, but the color just didn’t work with everything else in the space. No biggie. Heard of spray paint? Yup. Or if you don’t trust yourself, your electrician will likely take care of it for you. Some fixtures are harder than others to update, of course. This sconce was easy - just the exterior needed a light spray to work with the room and we let the undercoat shine through. Speaking of working with what you have, if you really love something, think out of the box a little as well. These sconces were originally plug-in sconces, but we all know that those look cheap and hardly elevate a space. So while we were changing the color up, we also asked the electrician to convert these into proper wired sconces. And just to tell you what’s possible, this master electrician knows how I like things. So he took it further. He knew I would hate to have light switches ruin a focal point - this wall is the first thing you see as you enter the room. So he made sure there were no light switches to be seen and these babies are powered by remote control, with dimmers and the works. In a word, gorgeous! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/e968300c-27d3-40bd-a6e7-e6021f54ff0d/How+to+Measure+copy.jpg Blog - LIGHT UP YOUR LIFE… - What Size Lighting to Buy There’s a simple rule of thumb when measuring for a chandelier. Measure the length and width of your room in feet and then add those two numbers together. For example, if I’m buying a chandelier for a room that measures 20’ x 16’, then 20+16=36, so I would need a 36” chandelier. Pretty simple, eh? That’s the design rule. And now that you know it, you can use that as your starting point and break it if you want to. Anything smaller than the number you calculated will look too small for the space. But in my experience, you CAN go bigger. And that’s where we tend to go at Taashki Studio. We’ve found that bigger fixtures that make a statement bring some serious WOW factor. Now you have to be careful here - you are playing with fire a little bit. Because when you’re doing this, do consider the question: how big is TOO big? There is always going to be an upper limit to how big you can go with a room without it looking ‘wrong’. I wish I had some hard and fast Design Rule for you there, but I’m still working that one out. At the moment, I recommend you go one or two sizes up maximum for the ‘ideal Design Rule’ size. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/8573d328-fb78-4801-ab7c-c44aa42ece94/Then+Go+Bigger+copy.jpg Blog - LIGHT UP YOUR LIFE… - Bulb Color & Location My clients know that when I come in, I immediately change their bulbs to 2700K and that makes such a dramatic difference to the ambiance. What am I talking about? Every light bulb you buy has a bunch of numbers and letters on it. If you want to nerd out, be my guest and look up ‘Kelvins’ and ‘Lumens’. But for real life, I’ve found that most people love to live in a home that has bulbs at 2700K or 3000K. The higher the ‘K’ number, the higher the Kelvins and the whiter the bulb and color of the room. So here’s what I do (and what you can also do) for a dramatic change: switch out all the bulbs in your decorative light fixtures to 2700K or 3000K in all rooms EXCEPT your Kitchen, Study and any other rooms where ‘work’ happens and you need to see clearly, e.g. Laundry Room. In those rooms, you’ll want a 4000K light bulb (which is also called ‘Daylight’. You’ll hear about a 5000K bulb - don’t do it - it’s super harsh and feels sterile like a hospital. So unless you want to feel on edge, I caution against it. https://www.taashki.com/blog/pocketsizedpowerhouse monthly 0.5 2025-04-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745185298962-E1T5FXGO39CV1TKPXZWY/moodboard.jpg Blog - POCKET-SIZED POWERHOUSE - moodboard.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/3428124e-c06a-49a4-a3e6-3f98ae6be960/finished+view+copy.jpg Blog - POCKET-SIZED POWERHOUSE - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745187323114-248G5A2VVCPXYTKXJKZE/bookmatched+countertop+and+handles.jpeg Blog - POCKET-SIZED POWERHOUSE - bookmatched countertop and handles.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745187322204-98JOSNJK91H63FOGES2R/bookmatched+countertop.jpeg Blog - POCKET-SIZED POWERHOUSE - bookmatched countertop.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/900148c8-33d0-4365-8742-39d5720f3ad9/bookmatched+countertop.jpeg Blog - POCKET-SIZED POWERHOUSE - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745185522432-TTH0LA8B6JVD63XI8EZT/gold+mirror+-+side+view.jpeg Blog - POCKET-SIZED POWERHOUSE - gold mirror - side view.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745185522262-QY2QP8BZH8STQ5RC5TIC/gold+mirror+-+front+view.jpeg Blog - POCKET-SIZED POWERHOUSE - gold mirror - front view.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745186952990-95Q57JN8FKSWVZTAXDZH/faucet+and+stone+sink+closeup.jpeg Blog - POCKET-SIZED POWERHOUSE - faucet and stone sink closeup.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745186957995-F32TEWNJQGO5MXLLI0F1/stone+sink.jpeg Blog - POCKET-SIZED POWERHOUSE - stone sink.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745186959504-AUQUIRJ2MWY8JRO6IQMB/Powder+Room+Sink+copy.jpg Blog - POCKET-SIZED POWERHOUSE - Powder Room Sink copy.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1742229360181-2AYPZKUJO89A69XZYWHL/koi+fish+2.jpg Blog - POCKET-SIZED POWERHOUSE - koi fish 2.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1742229417200-3C28AF6B1IVD8MYIGQL7/koi+fish+tile+copy.jpg Blog - POCKET-SIZED POWERHOUSE - koi fish tile copy.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745187068853-FSTD68NZO2MQXLO57BFU/gold+mirror+with+tash+reflection.jpeg Blog - POCKET-SIZED POWERHOUSE - gold mirror with tash reflection.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745187069211-9ISPXVWT5K8RW68EGCMS/gold+mirror+-+side+view.jpeg Blog - POCKET-SIZED POWERHOUSE - gold mirror - side view.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745187754813-HK8TKPCT8ET2GYDDSVBA/pendant+light+with+reflection.jpeg Blog - POCKET-SIZED POWERHOUSE - pendant light with reflection.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1745187994364-PQBP8LZLBB1YRJDPWU9F/finished+view.jpeg Blog - POCKET-SIZED POWERHOUSE - finished view.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/4a9882bc-c9c1-463f-875e-38b69d612fff/Siteplan.jpg Blog - POCKET-SIZED POWERHOUSE - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.taashki.com/blog/whatisashowhouse monthly 0.5 2025-08-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1739492096487-K0EYG5YQJRCIHKZ8OCIF/IMG_8767.jpg Blog - WHAT IS A SHOWHOUSE AND WHY SHOULD I CARE?

This provided plenty of storage, and was fabulous to style. The round coffee table softened all the angularity of the boxy space and existing built-ins. We ended up flipping the chair and the poufs, because ‘in the field’ you sometimes find things ‘feel’ better one way than the other. And along the back wall, we placed a bench that could be pulled in for additional seating. We styled it later to add textural depth. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1737305038328-NASFIIV8B0DGSZKLQV2K/Marlowe.jpeg Blog - ALWAYS TIME FOR GAMES… - Marlowe.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1737304915505-6K6AWWL5PA1A4RT4OK9Y/IMG_7341+-+Rug+Detail.jpg Blog -

I don’t love a ceiling fan in a bedroom for aesthetic reasons, but I can’t argue with it in Houston. Who can? I would much prefer to see a chandelier in a bedroom, if you can swing it. But even I lose that battle with my SO in every bedroom of mine, so sometimes you’ve got to give in. If you can’t get yourself a lovely chandelier, at least argue for a bedside pendant. You’re still winning. Why? Because, my pretties, lighting is jewelry. And what little girl doesn’t love jewelry? So, I floated the idea of suspending a single crystal pendant light above the bedside table. Both Lotus and Mom absolutely loved that idea. We installed a light switch by the bed, like you see in a fancy 5-star hotel and gave her a remote control. And just like that, the girl got her crystals. And I was happy knowing that I gave this little sweetheart a fancy light. DESIGN TIP: While there is no hard-and-fast rule for how high to hang a bedside pendant, here’s my rule of thumb. Go about 12” out from the wall (or the middle of your nightstand) and about 24” to 36” above your nightstand. It really depends on how tall you are and how high your headboard is. Ideally, you’d sit in bed and I’d gauge the ideal reading distance. We want the light to fall onto your book, but have space to style your nightstand. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1736202058400-OD5MRNNIUR0KE91UZVBC/tashmarlowe-360.jpeg Blog - A WEST U WONDERLAND - tashmarlowe-360.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1736202059278-96I6XINGOFON5EV411JK/tashmarlowe-366.jpeg Blog - A WEST U WONDERLAND - tashmarlowe-366.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1736202059527-GDJLVNM9OFPO7H4ENWEC/tashmarlowe-362.jpeg Blog - A WEST U WONDERLAND - tashmarlowe-362.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1736202173120-2G8KITSGN0T8RPTDU1HT/IMG_2902.jpg Blog - A WEST U WONDERLAND - IMG_2902.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1736202060174-YOPZNNG1KX4GDUHYZ3ID/tashmarlowe-361.jpeg Blog - A WEST U WONDERLAND - tashmarlowe-361.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1736202060642-I43JUXPNAUWOW61O07EJ/tashmarlowe-357.jpeg Blog - A WEST U WONDERLAND - tashmarlowe-357.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1736200364946-4T9MCT2J4MUS96F90UXJ/Cyrah%2527s%2BRoom%2B7.jpg Blog - A WEST U WONDERLAND - Cyrah's Room 7.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1736200392609-YHZR869NKUJPAZJAG2QM/Cyrah%2527s%2BRoom%2B-%2B9b%2Bbigger%2Bchair.jpg Blog - A WEST U WONDERLAND - Cyrah's Room - 9b bigger chair.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1736203507420-RVN0Z9AHJZ8BVDCCA904/Cyrah%27s+Bedroom+-+Before1.jpg Blog - A WEST U WONDERLAND - Cyrah's Bedroom - Before1.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1736203550679-5635RA7HS8F0QHHCO9A2/Cyrah%27s+Bedroom+-+Before.jpg Blog - A WEST U WONDERLAND - Cyrah's Bedroom - Before.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/38cfa5ef-c82e-4790-94fd-f596848cc427/tashmarlowe-357.jpeg Blog - A WEST U WONDERLAND - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1736199352115-MSLSSXOJXACQHDSEE25Z/IMG_7436+-+reading+nook.jpg Blog - A WEST U WONDERLAND - IMG_7436 - reading nook.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1736199352380-FWW3NE9EC31NX2MK8C0B/IMG_1034.jpg Blog - A WEST U WONDERLAND - IMG_1034.jpg https://www.taashki.com/blog/interiordesignruminations monthly 0.5 2025-08-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1736118171273-FYQAHE44ZFTX6YWU9PVZ/Taashki+Studio+Interiors+Living+Room+Design Blog - RUMINATIONS - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.taashki.com/blog/bedroom-sanctuary monthly 0.5 2023-10-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/67ed19db-1cd2-4791-b0ed-b938788ff441/well-designed-bedroom-with-velvet-headboard.jpg Blog - TURN YOUR BEDROOM INTO YOUR SANCTUARY - Choose Another View Accentuate what is already beautiful about your room. Play up any architectural features. If your space has none, then create some with expansive velvet panels or decorative molding, such as this image to the left. Work with your room layout. Choose one that works for your functional needs, your sleep habits and still creates drama. A new vantage point can make all the difference, and sometimes moving your furniture can be all that you need to completely change how you feel in a space. Step Out of the White Box Get rid of the dreaded ‘white box’ feeling in your space by using the 3 powerful design devices of color, texture and pattern. Color is the easiest way to create calm. Pattern provides an obvious jumping off point to guide color and design decisions. Texture adds depth and intrigue. We’ll talk so much more about this in future blog posts - I have SO much to say - so stay tuned. But for now, never use more than 3 colors in a space. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/8c1fb47a-a43f-4e04-bbd5-4883cca1161a/plant-styling-taashki-studio-houston.jpg Blog - TURN YOUR BEDROOM INTO YOUR SANCTUARY - Seeing Green Plants purify the air and make the best sleeping partners. They make you more relaxed, add lovely scent, texture and color. And take your room from average to fabulous. To style with them, use three different heights at varying levels and locations. Try flowers in a bedside vase, a corner tree and a medium size plant on a dresser. No green thumb? Don’t fret. Faux plants and flowers still bring visual magic! Buy Luxury A third of your life sleeping, so in my book, luxury bedding is worth the splurge! But with endless options - Egyptian cotton, Portugese & Belgian linen, thread count, cotton percale, cotton sateen - are overwhelming! With the help of experts like Parachute Home, cut through the confusion and get personalized recommendations. They’ll also teach you how to easily style your bed in a way that you can do every morning. You’ll recreate that cloud-like cocoon and luxurious hotel feeling in no time! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/c9f2c688-5ccc-4549-9b6e-70516cf6101b/girls-boho-wood-bed-crystal-pendant-taashki-studio-interiors-houston.jpg Blog - TURN YOUR BEDROOM INTO YOUR SANCTUARY - Go for the Glow The power of Lighting to create mood and transform a space is second to none. Think of your lighting like jewelry for your room. Always make sure you have multiple lighting sources in your space including task, ambient and accent lighting. A fabulous chandelier, bedside sconces or pendants and warm bulbs are essential to a fabulous bedroom. I love going larger with both my chandeliers and sconces/pendants. And yes, I prefer doing away with the bedside table lamps. Why? Because then you have more space on your nightstands and you minimize clutter! Make a Statement Make your bed the crown jewel - the focal point - of your room. An oversized, statement headboard creates a sense of height, space and unapologetic gravitas. And there’s nothing more luxurious than a seating area in a bedroom. Pay close attention to scale and symmetry. Keep pieces clean lined, and again reduce clutter. Give your furniture lots of breathing space. A few beautiful, well-made pieces are better than lots of cheap ones. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/bc62c3a1-3281-4380-ba7a-4354104e9ce9/pillows-on-wood-canopy-bed-by-taashki-studio-interiors-houston.jpg Blog - TURN YOUR BEDROOM INTO YOUR SANCTUARY - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/6795ac04-22b3-480b-8539-e8a4c37ff44d/canopy-bed-with-global-boho-headboard.jpg Blog - TURN YOUR BEDROOM INTO YOUR SANCTUARY - Can You Feel It? Think about how you want to feel in your room. Want to feel like you’re in Paris? Tulum? Skiing? On a beach? Calm? Sexy? The mood you want to create is the starting point of your design. It makes design decisions easy, and the overwhelm that comes with endless choices disappears. Because truly, THAT is why it is so hard to design a space - there are an infinite number of choices. But the minute you decide on how you want a room to feel, you basically eliminate 90% of those items that don’t fit with that feeling and you give yourself direction. Personality is Paramount The biggest secret to creating your sanctuary is to infuse it with your personality. Choose pieces that move you, that remind you of your journey and make you smile. They take you to places and times in your life that only you remember. And just like that, it becomes a room that can only be yours. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/8e60b2f9-19c8-4ca1-a03f-f297205bff75/modern-interior-design-bedroom-with-pendant-lights-headboard-molding-chandelier.jpg Blog - TURN YOUR BEDROOM INTO YOUR SANCTUARY - Curtain Call To get the delicious luxury of a pitch black night, as well the gorgeous diffused stream of natural daylight that hotel rooms have mastered, layer sheer curtains, blackouts and drapery. Mount your rod as high and as wide as you can, regardless of what your window size is. And take the curtains all the way to the floor. This will make your room look wider, taller and add magnificence. Complete the Look Just like accessories take an outfit from mediocre to spectacular, they can also elevate a room. All the small details can make your room come alive. But remember not too flood your space with too many pieces - restraint is key. Choose beautiful pieces that are pleasing to the eye, but that also have gravitas and real meaning for you. And really focus on your senses - scent, texture, even sound - to lend luxury to your space and take it to the next level. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/37527a0e-d8cc-4ef8-9a30-e2926c8c77ed/Blue-Bedroom-Upholstered-Bed-Pendants-Interiors-by-Taashki-Studio-Houston.jpg Blog - TURN YOUR BEDROOM INTO YOUR SANCTUARY - Make it stand out A serene bedroom recently complete for #Client-Can’t-Stop-Won’t-Stop https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/2b137505-753d-4f6a-aac2-da7c934a7d21/bedroom-floor-plan-with-vanity.jpg Blog - TURN YOUR BEDROOM INTO YOUR SANCTUARY - PLAN LIKE AN INTERIOR DESIGNER Don’t not - I repeat, do NOT - buy a single piece of furniture until you have a Plan. Your Plan should have three integral parts: 1) Your Ideal Investment Amount and Needs Assessment, 2) the Ideal Layout for your Functional Needs and Aesthetic Leanings, and 3) the Feeling you want to Create for your Design. We’ll dig deep into this in later blog posts, but suffice it to say that don’t do anything until you have a plan! Go Minimal A luxurious room has zero clutter. Everything has a place. So before you do anything else, remove the clutter. Be ruthless with all the extra ‘stuff’ you have (and don’t need or never use) and make sure everything that is in your room is essential and beautiful. Keep everything that involves ‘work’ out of your bedroom, so you can relax. Hire an Organizer to help, if you need to. The brilliant thing about Organizers is that they not only are unattached to your things, but they are pros at giving you a system that works with how YOU live your life. The best Organizers make it feel effortless. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/dcbdc98a-b626-4b99-9f43-c134d398434e/Upholstered-bed-lumbar-pillow-throw-lamp-interiors-by-taashki-studio-houston.jpg Blog - TURN YOUR BEDROOM INTO YOUR SANCTUARY - Get Some Help Investing in your bedroom is really an investment in YOU. When you feel rested, rejuvenated and relaxed, you offer the best version of yourself to your family, your friends, your work and your world. But as interior designers who do this every single day, we know that it takes work. And time. And not everyone has the energy to dedicate to making their space a dream. So don’t do it alone. If need help, give your interior designer a call. I speak for all of us when I say that we (they) have done this for decades and know exactly what it will take to make magic in your space. While it is possible to transform your bedroom by yourself, it is a whole lot more fun, and a whole lot easier to have a professional guide you through the process. We can make the process easy, fun, and fabulous. We’ll transform your space and take care of every little detail.

Most people think they’ll hire an interior designer once their house has been designed by their architect, they’ve picked out finishes, and their builder is almost done building. That’s when an interior designer is most useful, right? WRONG. An interior designer is MOST useful when you hire them FIRST - before you sign a contract with an architect or a builder - as there are a thousand ways they make your new build process easier. I see them (us) as the conductor of the custom home process, bringing all the elements together, and translating a confusing and very overwhelming process for the homeowner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/ea8c5a60-6433-4191-9ea5-5439c5ef5cf2/Banner+-+Dream+Team+Part+2.jpg Blog - ASSEMBLE YOUR DREAM TEAM - PART II - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.taashki.com/blog/dream-team monthly 0.5 2023-04-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/acb99400-379b-4691-b164-55522c88ec76/Banner+-+Dream+Team.jpg Blog - ASSEMBLE YOUR DREAM TEAM - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/724d2f93-3ca1-4fd6-b161-3beab7a60956/Builder-Zander.jpeg Blog - ASSEMBLE YOUR DREAM TEAM - Make it stand out Zander Homes https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/d17fa6b8-b806-4274-8dc8-f9038484cc2a/Architect.jpg Blog - ASSEMBLE YOUR DREAM TEAM - ARCHITECTS An Architect designs your house and produces blueprints (plans) that will serve first as the starting point for design decisions you make together, and then serve many other functions from informing safety and engineering to permitting and building. They are MAGICAL in thinking three-dimensionally and spatial relationships. They take all your dreams, visions and ideas, and what you say you want in your new home and translate that into a design of your new house. A house that considers the shape and size of your lot, as well as the size and needs of your family. They design the number and size of storeys, the number and size of rooms, the outdoor spaces, roof details, exterior design and the flow of your space. Their design makes the first impression – the exterior of your new home – but because they also design how things flow, they also dictate how your house functions for you as a family. They are responsible for ensuring that the blueprints meet the correct building standards for safety that exist in your city, state or local government. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/e96be79c-fbee-4124-8673-73eb76c901f4/Builder-SouthamptonGroup.jpeg Blog - ASSEMBLE YOUR DREAM TEAM - Make it stand out The southampton group https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/700b3eb8-85f1-4927-a468-b73cb5d541f4/Builder-DavidJames.jpeg Blog - ASSEMBLE YOUR DREAM TEAM - Make it stand out David James Custom Homes https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/c0de53e3-3428-483b-b17c-5cc41d6b8d17/Architect-Rice-Residential.jpeg Blog - ASSEMBLE YOUR DREAM TEAM - Make it stand out Rice Residential Design https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/7d19e406-49e0-4a88-8762-7a0db858ff4a/Architect-Design-DCA.jpeg Blog - ASSEMBLE YOUR DREAM TEAM - Make it stand out DESIGN DCA https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/b00ca87d-5147-46f0-8a19-cbc2a2d5c00a/Builder-Partnersinbuilding.jpeg Blog - ASSEMBLE YOUR DREAM TEAM - Make it stand out Partners in Building https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/7af0b0ba-611d-4e5a-8476-328b781b6dd3/Builder.jpg Blog - ASSEMBLE YOUR DREAM TEAM - BUILDERS A Builder reads the final blueprints (design plans) of the house that your Architect designs and builds you the physical structure, including both the inside and the outside. They do everything from helping you obtain the necessary surveys and engineering documents you need to helping you with permitting. Once construction is approved, they can handle everything from breaking ground to laying the foundation, from building the interior and exterior of the house to installing the last light bulb. In short, they turn the architectural plans for your house into a physical reality. A good builder – in my opinion – will be involved with you from the design stage and advise you on how design features affect your home build pricing, as some architectural features can affect your bottom line substantially. We’ll talk about that more in another post. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/48a16a23-da8b-4df1-a67b-40a4ad9a48cd/Interior+Designer.jpg Blog - ASSEMBLE YOUR DREAM TEAM - INTERIOR DESIGNERS An Interior Designer is the most beneficial team player you can have when building. We spend the most time with you and know you well, so we can advise on whether every aspect of the design or construction will work for you. We can ‘see’ the project as Architects are designing and consider both aesthetics and function. Our advice on interior layout, floor plan, entertainment spaces, and how your family needs may change are second to none. We handle it all, from the design of your kitchen cabinets to ceiling treatments, from furniture to lighting. We make the endless decision-making easy, instead of overwhelming. We take care of every last detail, and touch every single space. Our extensive planning and processes ensure everything goes smoothly and nothing is overlooked. In this way, we save you money, time. We start and end the project with you, and are fully vested in making sure you are THRILLED when you finally open the door to your new luxury home. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/311fd534-8347-4887-b536-2fb0245ac4b2/Architect-Brett-Zamore.jpeg Blog - ASSEMBLE YOUR DREAM TEAM - Make it stand out Brett Zamore Design https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/c3dbd0b6-1345-4749-8e42-2cc3353959ae/Builder-Ashwood+Designs.jpeg Blog - ASSEMBLE YOUR DREAM TEAM - Make it stand out Ashwood Designs https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/2c07faa8-c31d-4465-906c-ac7fafed7222/Your+Custom+Home+Dream+Team.jpg Blog - ASSEMBLE YOUR DREAM TEAM Get used to this place and settle in.

Our first dance at our wedding - the Doc’s and mine - was Patience, mainly because we both really had to exercise some serious patience during our intermittent long distance relationship (I lived in NYC and Hong Kong and he lived in Raleigh-Durham and then Charleston). Then we had a nine-month wait for my fiance visa to come through until I was allowed to move to the States and finally marry him, and we weren’t doing a very good job waiting. Fun little side story: the Doc convinced his amazing boss to let him work 21 days straight and take 9 days off every month. And then he flew to Asia. I would meet him at a different airport and we saw most of the places we wanted to that way. Anyway, I suggest you play a lot of Axel Rose while you’re thinking about building, because Patience is perhaps the biggest skill you’re going to have to master through the build process, my friend. No lie. You may think all this goes pretty quickly – and if you’ve got a fabulous architect (we’re looking at you Hollenbeck, it does – but there are going to plenty of periods where you’re going to have to wait on this and wait on that and just be still, waiting. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/0e3aab06-3314-424c-8613-e754eda8d399/Think+of+a+New+Build+Taashki+Studio+Interior+Design.jpg Blog - WANT TO BUILD A LUXURY CUSTOM HOME? - 8. TIME TO THINK/PONDER In hindsight, the week wait between architect’s meetings is absolutely essential. Aside from my needing to develop a modicum of patience (I am NOT a patient person!), that week between visits allowed us to ponder and really chew on whether the latest draft of our floor plan worked for how we live as a family. And that is key – how YOU live as a family may be completely different from how we live. The architects are going to suggest how luxury homes in your area are generally constructed, because resale ability is important if you’re not sure you’re going to be in your home forever. But the reality is, even if everyone in your area loves having a huge laundry room and you like to bring your laundry over to the coffee table to fold so you can catch up on the latest episode of Rock the Block (guilty), you would be sacrificing something else (a huge pantry?) to accommodate the Texas-sized laundry room. Having said that, take what your architects suggest seriously because they design houses all day everyday and their opinions are invaluable in telling you what the market wants. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/348d402e-8331-4ed0-b936-733ad8d7bb6f/Resale1.jpg Blog - WANT TO BUILD A LUXURY CUSTOM HOME? - 9. don’t always let your freak flag fly… It is super important to consider your life plans and potential plans. We plan to live in this house for a decade, at least until our girls go off to college. But our history has been telling, and we know for a fact that we get itchy to buy something janky and renovate and move every 3 years or so. We’ve been in our current house – it had fire engine red walls and ceilings and the most crazy floor plan you’ve ever seen, but is also the most visually stunning home we’ve ever lived in – for 5 years (a record for us!). But in truth we would have moved had the pandemic not hit. And the minute the world opened up again, what’s the first thing we did with the money we saved not going out? Yup, we went and bought a lot to build a house on. But I digress… we were talking about resale. Even if you think you’re going to live in this house you’re building forever, really think about whether there is a small, miniscule chance that you might need to/want to sell it at some point in the near future. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1678295876717-OT2I22R1K0UOQRGO1LB0/Taashki%2BInterior%2BDesign%2BHouston%2BNew%2BHouse%2BBuild%2B1.jpg Blog - WANT TO BUILD A LUXURY CUSTOM HOME? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1678295775528-UGIHLJYFFFSH06S1DXUN/Taashki+Interior+Design+Houston+New+House+Build+2.jpg Blog - WANT TO BUILD A LUXURY CUSTOM HOME? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1678295777917-YESYTSM56E3S3E6RLCRQ/Taashki+Interior+Design+Houston+New+House+Build+3.jpg Blog - WANT TO BUILD A LUXURY CUSTOM HOME? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/00b79160-2824-4abd-8e11-cffc634f7791/Dream+Team.jpg Blog - WANT TO BUILD A LUXURY CUSTOM HOME? - 6.

What’s the Big Idea? “Ideas are capital. Everything else is just money.” I must have heard that a million times growing up. My father’s favorite saying, he drove home the belief that the ideas – no matter how crazy or far-fetched – were the power behind everything. Ideas are where the value lies. In terms of building a new house, the ideas and pictures that you describe and show to the architects, designers – hell, even yourself – become a medium of visual communication when details are impossible to describe, or when you don’t know the language. So sign yourself up for a Pinterest account and start pinning everything that strikes your fancy, even if you don’t know why. Especially if you don’t know why. Even if there is no way in hell you’d put that thing in your house. If it grabs your attention, pin it. Because you might just be after a certain feel. And that ‘feel’ is where the magic is. How your house feels is much more important than how it looks. You may be thinking: “What kind of crazy interior designer is this woman if she doesn’t think how a house looks is the most important thing?” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/f9f5ad61-69a1-47f0-93b9-b48397ec6864/communication.jpg Blog - WANT TO BUILD A LUXURY CUSTOM HOME? - 3. talk to me, baby Image: Taashki Studio, Client Design Buff https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/dad9a954-395c-476e-afa8-d6487de261e6/SAOTA_US_LAX_Hillside-1.jpg Blog - WANT TO BUILD A LUXURY CUSTOM HOME? - Make it stand out Image Source: SAOTA Architects - Hillside Project, Los Angeles, CA https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/1755633671938-8TU6JQHV4G9RK2LBB968/2.jpg Blog - WANT TO BUILD A LUXURY CUSTOM HOME? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/4da30c80-fd2a-4d8c-b488-c6a241f9bbaf/The+Dream+House+-+Taashki+Studio+Interior+Design+New+Build.jpg Blog - WANT TO BUILD A LUXURY CUSTOM HOME? - 1.

NOW WHAT? - We finally found a gem – a rambling mid-century 4000 sq ft house on a 15,000 sq ft corner lot. The house needed a LOT of love. It needed to be raised (because so much more of Houston is in the 100 year flood zone after Hurricane Harvey), stripped down to the studs and built up again. The selling agent told us to go look around ‘at our own risk’ and we did. Despite smashed in windows, fallen down ceilings, peeling wallpaper and the smell of a house that has been sitting in disrepair for years, the house had beautiful bones and we were in LOVE. I started redesigning the house in my head. Here it is on the right. We put in our offer and… we lost the house to a developer that wanted to tear it down and build a spec house. Boring and sad. I was devastated. I had already started daydreaming about all the things I would do to the space. So we counter offered. And then counter offered again, all the while thinking of what we’d do to the house when we finally got it. While we waited to hear back, we did some legwork and got quotes into how much it takes to actually raise a house of that size and repair that foundation. Y’all, we were floored! We were naïve to think it was worth doing that. Now that I know what I know, let me tell you: it’s only worth raising a house if the house is one you love for sentimental reasons and you can’t bear to part with it. Or you can afford to spend extra money. Is it better for the environment? Probably, although I’d have to do my research on how much that extra concrete adds up. But financially, it’s just not a wise decision. And it is - at least at the moment - much more cost effective to build a new home. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/382e4f7c-7385-4f11-b780-82a8fd82bec6/Plot+of+Land+Natasha+Shamdasani.jpg Blog - YOU BOUGHT A LOT. NOW WHAT? - Anyway, I looked up the address Caro gave me and said: find out more, I said. That same night, I get home and the Doc tells me about a lot for sale in Caro’s neighborhood. The very same lot! We put in an offer directly with the seller and seven days later, it’s ours!!! It all happened so fast, my head is spinning. And now we own this glorious piece of land with a run down house that needs to be razed to the ground. But we have 13,000 sq ft of FOREST in the center of Houston. No joke, y’all, we have 21 old-growth trees on the property, including water oaks and cedar elm and a huge oak tree with branches that hang over the entire front beautifully – you know the kind you hang a swing on? Yeah, one of those. The kind that a girl who grew up in Hong Kong – the big city – dreamed of as a kid watching American family shows on TV. THAT kind of tree. And it is probably going to be the only place in H-town that is shaded this summer! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/c525cb26-9e87-4c27-84b6-1b635120952c/Banner+-+You+Bought+a+Lot%2C+Now+What.jpg Blog - YOU BOUGHT A LOT.

NOW WHAT? - Okay, I’m back! The funny thing is, we never intended on buying land. Like everyone else and their brothers, the pandemic made us ache for more space. Not in terms of our house – we are blessed to live in a 4,000 sq ft masterpiece of a Spanish Revival house, so we had plenty of space to stretch out - inside. But absolutely nothing on the outside. We’re concrete jungle all the way. What did we expect living in the middle of Houston? Well, I’ll let you in on a little secret - if you haven’t been to the glorious city that is H-town, get here pronto. This city has a lot to offer ‘inside the loop’, including broad tree-lined avenues and gorgeous neighborhoods with not only amazing public schools, but also generous yards and little cul-de-sacs smack bang in the middle of it all. I’m looking at you Boulevard Oaks, Braes Heights, River Oaks and West U! And then there are so many gorgeous up and coming areas, like Linkwood and Knollwood and the oh-so-stunning Riverside Terrace, that I think are all SO undervalued! Some would say it costs a pretty penny to live in these places. Having lived and spent months and months in some of the biggest cities in the world (Hong Kong, NYC, Mumbai, Dubai, Bangkok, Singapore), let me tell you, this city is a bargain. If I were you, I would get in on the ground floor while you still can.* https://www.taashki.com/blog/wowentryway monthly 0.5 2025-08-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/524be18c-5b0f-42db-8568-c2e648a115dd/image-asset.jpeg Blog - 5 STEPS TO DESIGNING AN ENTRYWAY - 3. a console table Image: Taashki Studio, Client Design Buff https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63ceaba8fe456a0a6c558851/beaa516d-0852-4370-bae1-05cec08bbc9c/statement-lighting.jpg Blog - 5 STEPS TO DESIGNING AN ENTRYWAY - 2.
